Forward March.

BERLIN, March I.-The Russian em. bassy are daily becoming more embar- rassed. That the government is looking for Russian irruptions in Afghanstan is shown by the fact that Lord Dufferin is hurrying the British troops to the iron. tier to help the Ameer. This circum- stance was cabled on as a rumor last week, and is now confirmed. It is un- derstood that the government has re. solved to adhere to the Austrian alliance, and to support that country at sea in case of war with Russia. At the war office and the admirality the opinion grows hourly that Russia means simul. taneous operations against Bulgaria and Afghanistan, and that Austria and Eng. land will meet her on those fields.

SALT LAKE, March. Word was received here to-day that K. R. Ketchum shot Jonh o. Green yesterday morning early, at Ketchum's ranch, in Southern Utah, about fifty miles northwest of Frisco. Ketchum, who had just returned from years absence, was jealous of Green, and when Green came out to iced the stock Ketchum killed him in. stantly with shotgun. Then Dell Hock- man, the stepson of Ketchum, came out ot the house and began shooting, Ketch. um returning his fire. Hockman, was not hurt, but Ketchum was shot through the body and will die.

Every step which brings England and America nearer to. gether seems to me a step nearer the realization of the idea of civilization of the future.

The Legislature has fooled away al-
 most its allotted time in trying to do
 something, that would injure some sec
 tion of the territory. When this assem-
 ply gathered at Prescott the different pa
 pers of Arizona announced that, at last,
 we had body of law makers who would
 pass some wise and bene6cent laws for
 our Territory-But after this present
 body of Arizona law makers adjourn, it will be discovered that il was about, as cheap body of men and as useless as ever gathered at our Territorial capital.
 The Assembly has not done a single thing
 but wrangle and squabble over some dis reputable measure. Not a single law have they passed which will ever be of any assistance in the future of our Ter ritory There have been several good bills introduced, but as yet not one has escaped that body of schemers. They have the ability and the nerve to originate anu PaoS uiiiS TUT tHc ulNlSlOn Ot our counties, which should. any one of them become a law, would bring disaster upon the people they wish to benefit. This is the size and the measure of the Arizona Assembly. They will go down to his- tory as the most corrupt gathering of law makers that has ever disgraced our capital. Arizona sadly needs in her Council halls, able conservative men men who are desirous of her success and who will put aside their sectional feelings and enact some laws in the interest of the whole Territory. This will never be accomplished while such empty headed galoots, as Pima's fancy man Scott and his ilk, are put forward to make laws for Arizona. The Thirteenth were heralded abroad over our land as gathering of vascals, but in :he opinion of the people, | they were vastly superior to this present mass of measels and | stupidity.

The EPITAPH desires to ask the mem-
 bers of the Board of Supervisors of Co.,
 chise county--the men who placed them selves on record as "reformers" by asking the legislature to enact law relieving ,he different counties from publishing the delinquent tax list, as well as the County Treasures notice-Why they au- dited and allowed bill to Mir. Brace. we'll of the Democrat for $500 for the publication of the delinquent tax list for the year 1886, when bid was before them in conformity with their advertised call to do the work for less than $4oo. We demand to know the reason for such transaction, so that we can place the responsibility where it properly belongs. If their motto is to save to the over-bur- dened tax payers of the county, why do they do business on such bases as this? It looks singular on the face of it, and we mistake the temper of the people of this county, if they tamely submit to such chicanery as this. On who and where the responsibility rests, we are unable to say, but we are of the opinion that it will need little explaining on the part of men who started to inaugerate such huge reforms as did these gentlemen, at the start.

WOlSplseY'S Views.

NEW YORK, March. I.-Thc Posts London correspondent has been favored with an interview with Gen. Lord Vol seley, in the course of which he express ed some very interesting opinions on the relations of England and the United States with regard to the future of civil ization. The conversation began by a discussion of the German elections and the prospects of peace in Europe,
 I inquired: "What is your own view of the relations of the great powers?"
 General Wolseley replied: q feel sure that vast and appalling war is certainly in the near future. The rapidly increas- ing armaments and hugh burdens which the several powers are loading upon them selves, and the directions in which these ornaments are being developed, must make war inevitable. Whether it will come this summer or not there is only one man in Europe who knows, that is Bismark."

A Republican Measure.

WASHINGTON, March. I.--There is a strong effort being made here by the Re- publicans of the country to have the Sem ate refuse to recognize the right of Turpe, of Indiana to seat in that body. They say with considerable propriety, that he has not a shadow of right or justice on his side, as his election was produced by illegal and unfair means, and that even the courts were bulldozed into deciding against the legally elected Lieut. Cover nor, of that State. If Trupie, is refused seat in the Senate, a terrific howl will be raised by the Democracy, and now they are preparing remonstrance to pre-. sent to that body.

Local Peculiarities of Speech.

In this country we seem to be or the verge Of

whether TO the advantage or 10 the disadvantage
OF ourselves and our posterty time will tell. The
effect or climate on the organs OF speech has had
certain influence, so that our national dlStenper
OF catarrh must be charged with our unqueStiOn-
able tendency TO pronounce our words with q
nasal twang which is familiar TO the of all the
world The influence OF race pecularitieS in GER
tain sections Is equally remarkable. The African,
for example. avoids the letter r. and the children
OF his southern masters drop IL likewise from their

PickpOckets at Work.

ECCENTRICTTIES OF FOLLOWERS OF THE NIMBLR
FINGER PROFESSION.
From NJ Mace's Book.
Each Nationality OF pickpOckets has distinguish
ing popularity. The English pickpOcket, who makes
point OF never working with band OF foreigners,
although possessed OF narvelOusy dexterous
hands is nevertheless too stiff and angular In his
movements. He is very prudent, makes a point Of
never stopping longer then minutes in the same
crowd and rarely makes more than one victim In
the same place. He is great walker and utterly
tires out the detectives who are set to watch him
The Spanish pickpOcket places his industry
under the care OF the Virgin, and II caught calls
al! the saints to witness his innocence and makes
great pretenSe OF piety and devotion His main
fault lies in the fact that he IS always in too great
a hurry TO examine the contents of the purse
which he has stolen. The German pickpOcket Is
as rule, brutal and rough toward his vtcrirA
The method which he habitually Affects is to
stumble up against the victim, and his fayorite
hunting grounds are the veStibuleS OF banks and
other kinds OF financial establishments, where ne
has had an opportunity OF watching people putting
money into their pockets He frequently tracks
his quarry TO those peculiar little constructions on
the Paris OouieyardS which are known by the
name or .'Ve5paSiennes." where he avaiIs himself
OF the monetary disadvantage at which his vic
tim Is placed
The Italian would be the king OF pickpockets IL
he had but the prudence OF the English. He Is too
apt to continue working on the same spot, other
wise he might defy the most clever police known
His skill Is equal TO that OF The finest slenht-of-
hand, his manners are elegant and his movements
80 graceful and his courtesy SO exquisite that he
eieyateS his profession TO perfect art. 1t NAV he
OF interest 10 add that as general rule the pick
pocket does not wear glove on his right hand
In winter shawl or necAwrap takes the place OF
the OyercOat.
